        Good Idea

        You did warn us, it was a beta..

        But does this mean, that you are also gonna improve the editor..
        (perhaps project handeling, marco scripting *i want that badly*)

        BTW Your online help isn't working 100% right too, if there is no space
between the routine and the beginning of the line, it will say there
there isn't help available. (should be easy to fix)

        But i think we really, really want macro scripting up to a superb
level.... (ebasic in a scripting file, i know its way too complicated
for macro scripting, althrough i will have a try anyway)
         I'm thinking about a pre-processor that translates macro to normal
euphoria include files. (So the scripting could use all the tricks it
wants to, but then with readable rules, and not wasting time on the
parser stuff)
        What do you think about that idea, could a generic
scripting-pre-processor make your ebasic a lot more readable and easy to
maintain ??
